I'm a college kid. I have no coffee making equipment , not even filter paper. Can I make cold brewed coffee -since it doesn't involve any coffee specific equipment- then heat it up for a hot coffee? How would the flavor profile be affected?
I am a recent coffee convert since starting college.
I have alot( like 5++kilos) of frozen fish. I have no more storage space in my freezer. How can i preserve these frozen fish in a way that would not require refrigerating them?
I was thinking of smoking but then smoked fish needs to be refrigerated. Anyone has any preservation method or recipes for frozen fish?
What's the name of the style of omelet that has like a runny scrambled egg interior?
Not the rolled type or the foldover type where eggs are spread out in the pan, fillings added to one half ,then folded over to over the toppings with the other half.
Also, creamy egg white scramble are quite impossible due to the lack of fat right? I was thinking of blending whites + yogurt + xanthan gum, then cook and stir over low heat. Is this dumb or possibility of finally getting some creamy whites?
Btw, will adding baking powder to my eggs allow me to create fluffy scrambles?
I was thinking of making ice cream with whipped cream. Since I don't have an ice cream maker, I want to use the freeze and churn(hand held mixer) and freeze and churn method.
Will I lose volume if I stabalise the cream w gelatin before adding it to the base, freeze, then churn ?
Does the above make sense?thnks
What's your preferred way to eat it? I made some kimchi and need some inspiration.
how do you tell apart mature and immature fava beans/broad beans?.
I have a bag of frozen broad beans. it does not say mature or immature and they are not in pods.
I also have a bag of dried broad beans. They have a dull greenish colour.
I would like to know if they are mature or immature. since the nutritional difference b/w the two arehuge, the immature has like 1/5 of the calories of the mature beans( based on weight).
thanks for the help people!
How do you gauge weather a stove top custard is thick enough for a no-bake custard pie such that when it gets sliced( after cooling) it would not be too runny?
i cooked my custard till it coated the back of a spoon and left a trail when stirred but it was still too runny. it definitely was thick, but not slice-able, i would say more suitable for individual tarts
does the custard need to pull away from the sides like a choux pastry? i was worried it would become too firm.
any help greatly appreciated!
btw, what is the difference between a custard and cream pie?
Which would make better pizza? Cheese over or under toppings? Just curious to know serious eaters preference .
I'm confused as to which is the correct/better method to cool a Japanese cottonsoft soufflé cheesecake. Some recipes calls for the
1)cake to be cooled in the oven (rationale: drastic change in temperature causes the cake to collapse)
Eg : http://www.thecookbookchronicles.com/blog/?p=3906, http://lilyng2000.blogspot.com/2005/10/cotton-soft-japanese-cheesecake.html
While other calls for the cake to be unmoulded immediately (rationale : Allowing cake to sit in mould causes cake to sink)
Eg: http://wendyinkk.blogspot.com/2010/05/japanese-cotton-cheesecake-with-fresh.html, http://mybakingcottage.blogspot.com/2008/01/japanese-souffle-cheesecake.html
So which is it?, both sounds logical to me...I would love to bake a real good Japanese style cheesecake
Any advice /input out there???
Thanks

Hey guys and gals,
So I really want to make a layer cake but I don't have enough pans to bake 3 seperate layer. Was thinking of baking one really tall cake and then splitting the cake horizontally into 3 layers. Any idea how to convert layer cake recipe to do this? Like how much longer to bake and all? Thank you!
turning into mush...the dried beans are unsoaked. ...plan on making some chili but will be out of house like 15 hours.thanks!
sweet potato cake. purple, fat free
whenever i make low fat+low sugar ice cream ( done w/o ice cream maker, i use the freeze and stir method), it basically turns to ice the following day. thus, i was thinking of doing this to store the ice cream:
ice cream in ice cream container, then placing the ice cream container in a bag of salt before placing it in the freezer
my rationale is that the salt will lower the freezing point of the ice cream, so it should prevent the ice cream from turning into ice too easily.is this a good idea?,your thoughts?
was also thinking about lining the container with wax paper, would this help?
or does anyone have any solution wrt to storing low fat+low sugar ice cream?...thanks guys!
